From the Abyss Invasion to the Blasting Star.

Chapter 295: Third Class Rank, Void Swordsman

At the moment before the multi-hexagonal space closed, Augustus threw out the crystal bottle.

At that time, the Blood King Mogus knew that he could not escape, and at the last moment he threw a black seed out of the space, which drilled into the ground and disappeared.

Just as the elves were falling into grief, the black seeds underground began to sprout and grew black tentacles that spread underground and converged towards the Moon Well.

After touching the space barrier, the black tentacles began to release abyss energy to disintegrate the space barrier.

The space barrier around the Moon Well began to vibrate.

The arcanists among the elves were the first to notice that something was wrong.

Arcanist Elena, who came from the Twisted Tower, immediately exclaimed: "Oh no! It's the Abyss Tentacle!"

She raised her hand and sent out a ball of arcane energy, which shattered the rocks and exposed the black tentacles underneath.

Black tentacles burst out of the ground, wrapped around the Moon Well from all directions, and began to corrode the defensive barrier.

Tyrese, Queen Orianna and other powerful elves reacted and immediately rushed forward to attack the abyss tentacles.

Human psychics also rushed forward to help.

These black tentacles are the source of abyss pollution, and are also the target of the second challenge mission.

All elves and humans were attacking the Abyss Tentacles, but there were too many of them, growing out from the ground endlessly.

In a situation like this, the best way is to use a powerful attack to destroy the entire underground space along with the abyss tentacles.

Just like the Delims 3 base of the Sykes civilization, use nuclear bombs to destroy the abyss tumor at the bottom of the base.

This is the best way.

However, there is a moon well here, and it is the last moon well in the world of Quel'dorei.

This is the lifeline of the elves. If the Abyss Tentacles are destroyed by a powerful attack, the Moon Well will also be destroyed.

Therefore, this method cannot be used in the current situation.

The elves can only continue to attack the Abyss Tentacles to slow down the speed at which the Abyss Tentacles pollute the Moon Well.

Just when the Moon Well's defensive barriers were completely breached and the abyss tentacles were about to drill into the Moon Well.

The forest elder of the elves, Seren, finally arrived at the city of Kolos.

As soon as Seren received the message, he rushed from Moonshadow Forest to Kolos City, but the timing chosen by the Blood Clan was too clever.

The time when the Bloodborn attacked happened to be when Queen Orianna went to Luna Lake, Seren was in Moonshadow Forest, and Augustus was missing.

Even Terris was not in Kolos City at that time. He rushed over only after receiving the news.

Since Storm Peaks is relatively close to the city of Kolos, Tyreese arrived first.

Moon Shadow Forest is the farthest away, and even with a flight it would take half a day.

That's why Seren arrived just now.

He entered the Moon Well space and saw tens of thousands of abyss tentacles swaying on the ground. He hurriedly scattered golden tree seeds and then cast natural magic to catalyze the germination of the golden tree seeds.

Next, the Moon Well spring water was used to irrigate the golden tree species.

The golden tree seeds quickly grew into tall trees, extending vines of life that entangled with the tentacles of the abyss.

Not only on the ground, but also beneath the ground, the roots of the Tree of Life's vines penetrate deep into the ground, also entwining the tentacles of the abyss.

Su Muyu insisted and released the vines of life to help.

With the blessing of Seren's natural magic and the Moon Well spring water, the Vine of Life relied on inexhaustible natural energy to entangle all the abyss tentacles, purifying them bit by bit.

Half a day later, all the abyss tentacles were purified.

Seren walked to the hexagonal crystal wall, bent down, and used his fingers to pick out a black seed shell from the ground.

After purifying the Abyss Tentacles, all humans participating in the battle found that the second challenge mission was shown as completed.

The battle finally ended.

Seren walked to the multi-hexagonal crystal wall, looked at the empty space inside, and sighed softly.

Back then, he, Augustus, and Tyrese were all Orianna's teachers.

At that time, Orianna was still very young and not yet the queen of the elves, but she showed great talent.

All three of them liked this student so much.

However, due to some things, rifts arose among the three of them and they eventually left.

Seren wanted to study the method of purifying the abyss, so he lived in seclusion in the Moon Shadow Forest and concentrated on studying natural magic.

Augustus stayed in Koros, took charge of the magic tower, and continued to teach Queen Orianna arcane magic.

Tyrese traveled around the world, killing demons throughout the entire Quel'dorei world.

It was not until ten years ago, when the Blood Clan attacked the city of Kolos and Augustus was seriously injured, that Tyrese rushed back from a distant place.

In fact, the three of them did not have any deep hatred. It was just because they acted on impulse back then that they had a grudge and no one could let go of their pride.

Now, Augustus has guarded the Moon Well with his life, leaving only two of the original three people.

……

After the battle, the Elf Guards cleared out the blood demons inside and outside the city of Kolos and began to repair the city walls.

After this disaster, the elves underwent great changes.

Queen Orianna, Thryn, and Tyreese sat down to discuss future arrangements.

Seren chose to return to Moonshadow Forest to continue studying natural magic and find a way to purify the abyss.

After Augustus' death, Queen Orianna became the most powerful arcanist among the elves.

Therefore, she took over Augustus's duties and took charge of the Magic Tower.

Tyreese stopped traveling and decided to stay, serving as the commander of the elves and guarding the city of Kolos.

……

With the end of this battle, the recruitment time for the Abyss Battlefield has come to the final moment.

On the last day before the return, Queen Orianna summoned a dozen humans including Lu Heng to the palace for reward.

"Thank you humans for helping the Quel'dorei. This is a token of gratitude to you."

Queen Orianna stepped down from her throne and waved toward a curtain.

An elf servant came out with a tray with a dozen crystal bottles on it.

The crystal bottle is not big, only 7 cm high and 3 cm wide, and is filled with a liquid that emits a faint glow.

Queen Orianna held up a crystal bottle and walked up to Lu Heng: "Thank you for your contribution to the Quel'dorei."

Lu Heng nodded, took the crystal bottle, stared at the liquid in the bottle, and guessed what was inside.

Then, Queen Orianna picked up another crystal bottle and placed it in Lu Heng's hand, saying, "I heard from Elder Serien that you have a companion in Moon Shadow Forest. Please express my apologies to him. This is a gift for him."

Xie Shien was injured by Fred, the deputy captain of the Elf Guard, and Fred was acting on the orders of Augustus.

In other words, Xie Shien was injured because of Augustus.

Although Augustus did this to protect the elves and did nothing wrong in essence, he did hurt an innocent person.

Queen Oriana didn't want Augustus' name to be tarnished in any way, so she also prepared a bottle for her teacher Xie En.

When accepting the gift, Lu Heng saw a necklace on Queen Oriana's chest, with a crystal bottle tied to it.

All the crystal bottles have been distributed, and every human who participated in the final battle has received one.

Queen Orianna finally expressed her gratitude: "Thank you all for your help to our tribe. The bottle contains the magical water from the Moon Well. You can ask our arcanists about its specific effects later and they will answer you."

When everyone present heard that it was the water from the Moon Well, they were extremely excited.

I had heard about the secret of the Moon Well Spring before, and knew that this magical spring water could improve skill levels.

Everyone wants to get it, but it is the lifeblood of the elves and cannot be snatched.

I didn't expect that I would receive a personal gift from Queen Orianna when I was about to return.

……

Lu Heng knew a little about the Moon Well water, but he still went with Su Muyu and others to find the elven arcanist to learn more about the effects of the Moon Well water.

The Moon Well spring water does have many effects.

The first one is to upgrade the level, which is easy to understand.

Lu Heng's current source energy level has reached level 39, Su Muyu has also reached level 38, and the source energy levels of the others are not much different.

After all, in this battle, no one knows how many blood demons were killed, and the total amount of energy absorbed was very large.

Many people have upgraded two or three levels in a row. However, it is a waste to use the Moon Well water to increase the source energy level.

In addition, the Moon Well has a second function, which can be used to increase skill levels.

D-level skills can be upgraded to C-level, and C-level skills can be upgraded to B-level, provided that the skill proficiency has been fully mastered.

To put it simply, the water from the Moon Well is equivalent to Lu Heng's [Divine Evolution] talent plus a sum of divine energy.

In addition, there is a third effect.

The Moon Well water contains divinity, which is why it can replace divine energy to upgrade skills.

And this divinity is of source nature, that is to say, using the Moon Well spring water can increase the source fusion degree and obtain a deified effect.

Lu Heng's first-level source ability [Shadow Travel] has achieved a mythical effect, with the additional ability of shadow vision.

The original [Shadow Walking] ability is that after escaping into the shadow, once entering the inside of an object, one will not be able to see the situation outside.

With shadow vision, you can go into the mountain and see things outside.

In other words, the Moon Well water can replace the divine source essence, improve the source essence fusion degree, and make the source essence ability gain a deified effect.

For other psychics, the three effects of the Moon Well water, except for increasing the source energy level, the other two effects are very precious.

Of course, for Lu Heng’s team members, the second effect of the Moon Well Spring Water is not that valuable.

After all, Lu Heng has the ability to upgrade his skills and only needs to consume divine energy.

Therefore, the most valuable effect is the third effect, which can be used as divine source.

After Lu Heng understood all the effects of the Moon Well water, he decided to absorb it all and use it to improve the fusion degree of the third-level source quality and obtain the mythical effect at the same time.

Currently, the number of third-level source essences is extremely scarce, and there has been no battle for source essences.

The Moon Well spring water is a perfect substitute for the third level source material.

Lu Heng opened the crystal bottle according to the method taught by the elven arcanist and absorbed the Moon Well water inside.

As streams of holy water from the Moon Well flow into the body, every cell in the body is baptized and rejoices.

The spring water from the Moon Well merged into the third-level source essence and began to flow throughout the body.

The degree of source essence fusion began to soar at a speed visible to the naked eye.

[Absorbing the magic spring water of the Moon Well, the fusion degree of the source essence is improved, and the source essence ability obtains a divine effect. 】

[Source quality fusion degree: 100%]

[The fusion of source essence is completed, the job level is integrated, and it is promoted to the third job level "Void Swordsman". 】

[Void Swordsman: A sword envoy who travels between the boundaries of the void and reality. He has the ability to control the void and shatter space. He is good at creating miracles on the battlefield with his unique ability.]

[Void Flash (Mythos): Release source energy to travel through the void, and instantly flash a certain distance. Gain the new effect of completing the class, and gain a void energy shield that lasts for 3 seconds after traveling through the void. Mythos effect: Number of consecutive flashes +1; total number of times: 2 times. Maximum flash distance = 1×source energy level. ]

After absorbing the water from the Moon Well, Lu Heng saw the deified effect of [Void Flash], and his eyes suddenly showed joy.

The original name of the third-level source essence was [Void Blade], but after merging with the original class, it formed a new class [Void Swordsman].

The effect of [Void Flash] has also been enhanced a lot. First, after flashing, you will gain a void energy shield, which lasts for 3 seconds.

Although the duration is not long, it is equivalent to an additional means of self-protection.

This void energy shield is obtained after the third-level source substance is fully fused. In other words, every psychic who has completed the fusion of the [Void Blade] source substance can obtain it.

The following deification effect is not available to every class winner.

The original [Void Flash] can be used once when the third-level source energy is fully stored.

This ability is of the space system and consumes a lot of source energy, so it can only flash once each time.

After gaining the apotheosis effect, you can flash twice in a row.

It directly doubles the effect of the source energy, and this mythological effect is simply ridiculously strong.

Moreover, being able to flash continuously means that the void energy shield can be refreshed, and the two effects can be superimposed on each other.

……

In addition to Lu Heng in the team, Su Muyu also has a third-level source of essence, which is the [Vine of Life].

Moreover, when fighting against the blood demon, her source essence fusion degree was also improved.

As long as she absorbs the Moon Well water now, the fusion degree of [Life Vine] can reach 100%, obtain the deification effect, and get the complete class.

However, after careful consideration, Su Muyu decided not to absorb it for the time being.

Because after the source essence fusion is completed, the [Life Vine] will solidify into a class and will not be able to extract source essence.

When she was in the Moonshadow Forest, she promised the Ancient Tree of Knowledge that she would go back and return the Vine of Life after the crisis of the elves was resolved.

If you are more ruthless, you can complete the source fusion now. The Ancient Tree of Knowledge cannot take away the [Vine of Life].

Su Muyu didn't want to do that. Since she had promised the Ancient Tree of Knowledge, she still wanted to fulfill her promise.

So on the last day.

She told Lu Heng about this idea, and after thinking about it for a while, Lu Heng agreed with her decision.

The elves are the civilization that has resisted the abyss the longest. Maintaining friendly relations with the elves will be of great help to human civilization.

In the future, more human beings with special abilities will be recruited. Perhaps one day, when the situation of the human world being invaded by the abyss becomes increasingly worse, elves will also be recruited into the human world.

Now that the two sides have established an alliance, this relationship should be continued.

If one day Seren can find a way to purify the abyss, that will be the hope for mankind to escape from the abyss.

Therefore, after saying goodbye to Queen Oriana and Tyrese, the two left Kolos City and headed for Moonshadow Forest.

Moreover, Xie Shien is still in the Moon Shadow Forest.

Although you can see it after returning, it is better to go back to Moonshadow Forest first.

Lin Zeyu naturally followed along. He had not yet obtained the third-level source quality, so he collected the Moon Well water first and would use it after obtaining the source quality.

……

The three of them rode on the mechanical tiger and flew for half a day, arriving at the Moon Shadow Forest in the evening.

The three of them went to see Xie Shien first. Lu Heng handed him the Moon Well water and expressed his apologies to him on behalf of Queen Orianna.

Afterwards, Su Muyu entered the ancient tree of knowledge space to fulfill her promise.

Lu Heng stayed in the tree house and told Xie Shien about the Battle of Kolos City.

In particular, the matter concerning Augustus and the phylactery was explained clearly.

After all, this matter is related to him.

"The life box cannot be retrieved, so leave it to Queen Orianna as a souvenir." When Lu Heng accepted the gift of Moon Well water, he saw Queen Orianna wearing the crystal bottle on her chest.

Augustus' soul has self-destructed, otherwise there would not be enough energy to destroy Mogus.

So now the crystal bottle is no longer a life-saving box, it is just an ordinary crystal bottle, which represents Queen Orianna’s longing for her teacher.

……

the other side.

Su Muyu passed through the forest passage and entered the ancient tree space of knowledge.

She stood in the space, looked at the quiet old tree and said, "I am back. I will fulfill my promise. You can take the [Vine of Life]."

After Su Muyu finished speaking, the Ancient Tree of Knowledge was silent for a long time before slowly speaking:
“Kid, you’re very honest, I wasn’t sure if you would come back until I saw you.

"Even if you don't come back, I won't blame you, because you helped the elves resolve the crisis and saved the Quel'dorei. Thank you."

Su Muyu chuckled and said frankly: "In fact, I have thought of this bad idea in my mind. And Queen Oriana gave us a bottle of Moon Well water. If I absorb the Moon Well water, I can complete the source fusion. In that case, you can't take it away even if you want to."

"Why don't you do that?" the Ancient Tree of Knowledge asked curiously.

"I promised you that as long as I can come back alive, I will return the [Vine of Life]. Now that I have promised, I should fulfill my promise." Su Muyu actually felt it was a pity in his heart. After all, that was a powerful third-level source essence.

The Ancient Tree of Knowledge was silent for a long time before it slowly said, "The Vine of Life in you is not complete."

Su Muyu nodded: "Yes, there should be some remaining [Life Vine] essence in the Creator Organization of the human world."

The Ancient Tree of Knowledge continued, “I will make another agreement with you. I will give you the [Vine of Life] on your body, and I will help you absorb the water from the Moon Well to gain this power.

"You have to agree to one of my requests. Collect other [Life Vines] for me in the human world and bring them back to help Moon Shadow Forest regain its vitality. Are you willing?"

Su Muyu didn't expect to have an unexpected surprise, and quickly agreed: "I am willing, but I am not sure when I can complete this task. Because the Creator Organization is very mysterious and powerful."

The Ancient Tree of Knowledge said slowly, "It doesn't matter. I have a long time to wait."
